Sac Investor Pickectian Corporation 268-8000 Education commissioner offers $2 billion school funding plan The Associated Press AUSTIN A new proposal from state Education Commissioner William Kirby would increase state funding of public schools by $2 billion a year, a figure Kirby says the Legislature probably would be reluctant to spend. The plan was offered to State Board of Education members on Wednesday as a possible response to. a court ruling last year that the state's $11 billion-a-year public school finance system is unconstitutional.
Although Kirby acknowledged that his "blue sky" proposal probably requires more money than lawmakers want to spend, he said the plan "would go a long way toward meeting the requirements of the court order" by State District Judge Harley Clark. Clark ruled the state's finance system unconstitutional because it denies equal access to funds by all districts. Asked by board chairman Jon Brumley whether it would the state out of court, the commissioner said: "'If we adopted this, the lawsuit would have to start all over again and the findings would be quite diffe- ing program that would aid poor rent." school districts in serious need of The 4-year-old lawsuit was new classrooms and other brought by a group of poor school The money would be distributed durdistricts, which charged that the ing the 1989-90 school year, using a state's finance system favors wealthy priority list of projects across the districts and discriminates against state. their students.
